What are your lifts?
"However, the strength of the hamstring muscles is crucial to fully exploit the strength potential of the quads and ultimately the vertical force that the athlete is able to impart to the barbell." - Andrew Charniga, Jr.

I currently weigh about 170lbs (trying to cut down to low 160s). I can only clean 90kgs (goal for end of summer is 100kgs). I havent tried snatching really heavy because im working on form, my clean form is decent though. I have been olympic lifting for about a month now.

Olympic bars aren't that "whippy." Only when you get above 350 lbs. or so. Olympic weightlifters just make them look that way

1: 91kg (200lbs)
2: 71kg (155lbs) - power snatch
3: 91kg (200lbs) - power clean and jerk
4: 162kg (356.4lbs) - in the gym
5: been training seriously for about 2 years now, ie I know what I'm doing, currently doing more powerlifting focusing on the squat, when I'm repping 315 in the squat I want to get back to technique work on the 2 classic o-lifts, maybe do a run of the joe-mills routineLast edited by GoJu; 07-05-2007 at 08:06 PM.
